This song was what it was all about. Starting out with Eddie on the guitar a little mellow in the beginning and then totally fucking crushing it.David on the vocals with the deep Devil voice then powering it out like the old days. With Alex on the drums and Mike at bass it literally gave me chills to hear them together. I thought it would never happen.Best song ever

I agree with the rest of you guys. I'm a huge fan of VH with DLR. The quality of the music from those years has never been equaled by later VH or anyone else, in my opinion. I had pretty much forgotten about this song and I happened across it on Napster. Best .99 I ever spent! I just got through listening to it with my earbuds cranked way up and my eyes closed. It almost brought me to tears. It takes me to a happy place! I'd put this song up against anything else they've done.

A sign of things that should have come | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/20/07

I got this the first week it came out in 1996. Two new VH songs were on the beft of album, both with David Lee Roth. I was intrigued and excited to see how these would play out.

"Me Wise Magic" has got to be one of the coolest VH songs ever. It brings back a feeling of old VH (and rock in general), and offers a glimpse into what they could have accomplished on a new studio effort. It's a shame nothing transpired from these two new songs. Too bad they couldn't put their differences aside and create an album with "Me Wise Magic" as a single from it.

I REMEMBER THIS SONG WHEN IT CAME OUT IN 96. BUT IT WASNT UNTIL LATE 2005 WHEN I WAS NAPSTERING AND I FOUND IT-- OR RATHER IT FOUND ME. ITS A SHAME THAT THE BAND BREAKING UP-- AGAIN IN 1996-- OVERSHADOWED A TRULY MAJESTIC PIECE OF MUSIC.

ITS A SYMPHONY. STARTS OFF WITH A SORT OF INDIAN FEEL-- MYSTICAL-- THEN THE GROWLING LYRICS START WITH THE RETURN OF DLR.

ON YOUR FIRST LISTEN-- IT MAY JUST SOUND LIKE SOME GORRVY WAILING. BUT GIVE IT ANOTHER.I SUGGEST YOU GET THE LYRICS ON THE WEB-- AND READ ALONG-- AND IF YOU FEEL WHAT DAVE IS SAYING AND EDDIE IS PLAYIN' IT'S QUITE PROFOUND................. AND WHAT A SOLO!

REALLY-- IF YOU ARE A HALEN FAN-- YOU MUST GET THIS-- BUY IT THOUGH-- DONT GYP THESE GUYS-- THEY DEFINATELY EARNED THEIR ROYALTIES ON WHAT I CONSIDER ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFL PIECES OF MUSIC I'VE EVER HEARD.

THAT MAY SOUND A LIL OVER THE TOP-- BUT " ME WISE MAGIC" MAKES ME FEEL LIKE NO OTHER SONG HAS.

Fantastic Song! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/1/06

A truly great song, with exceptional feeling and attitude. It's sad to see that Van Halen is no longer with David Lee Roth. This is a perfect example of the power and majesty they had when performing together as a team. They truly were 'Magic' when they were together.
